Ooh, ooh, do me! What powers do I have?

[Lix Lorn]

Extra gun-arms. :P

Oh, kender! I dunno if you read SMBC, but as the expert on periods, you might find it funny today! Or you might be offended, ymmv I guess.

[Mina Kobold]

Ooh, ooh, do me! What powers do I have?

Super-hugs! Because you can hug thrice as much!

And yay! I am a bouncy crime-fighter! Thanks, Asta!

*Hop, skips and jumps away*

I should probably add superstrength to at least Kenderwoman if she's going to swing a 7-lb. mallet all day long...

Do I get any special powers too?

[Asta Kask]

I don't know enough about you, but feel free to write some yourself.

ETA: Also, if we're going to do this on a large scale we should probably have a separate thread for it.

Bleeeeeh.

Hate these sorts of abilities.

[Asta Kask]

What's wrong with that?

Maybe we should have some villains as well... Gaybasher, the Patriarch...

[Kneenibble]

*giggle* As funny as it sounds, I wanted to wear heels for pretty much just that reason... to see how bad it would be to look good. Unfortunately I'm 6 feet tall already, and my wife put her foot down. "You don't want to wear heels. It'll make you look too tall. We can get you some shoes that look really nice but aren't heels."

If you can find an appropriate merchant, there is a species of embroidered slipper from the Muslim parts of India and Pakistan (whose name I forget at the moment: they are of Moghul Empire descent) that are pretty, feminine, but quite altogether flat in the sole. Some of them even have the curled toe of elves and genies.

The date with your wife is a wonderful thing. I am turning the idea over in my mind and smiling.

What if it was used to help people in depression? Would that be bad?

What's wrong with that?

Mind control is usually a bad thing because we value freedom and independence. Kind of why love potions are seen as unethical, they force people to do things solely because of a drug or external magic.

Eep! >_<

Also, Dr. Heteronormative, meow.

Also: Changed Kenderwoman's powers.

Right here.

This is mostly my own views towards the subject of mind control. I am very much not comfortable with it. Not at all.

Against their will? Yes.

We should probably drop this, or at least take it to a thread of its own.

Something odd just happened:

I seem to have woken up with a higher-pitched voice than I had yesterday.

It hasn't changed very much, but it's changed enough to make my humming sound off-key... It's really neat (and it'd be relaxing, if it didn't feel so odd), but it's really weird to wake up sounding two years younger out of nowhere.

Thank you for the responses everybody. Yesterday was pretty... bad, but today is much much better.

I have good news, I'm going on a date! With my wife! As a girl!!

Long, boring details below:

Spoiler

Show

We got to talking yesterday when she got home from work. It was late (she works the late shift), and I was feeling really down. So we got to talking about this and that. I mentioned I'd brushed all the tangles out of our daughter's hair (she'd let it go and it was a rat's nest... horrible. She was in tears. But I got it for her).

My wife mentioned that she was going to cut her bangs soon, and I asked her teasingly if she'd cut mine. She smirked and said no, but I pressed her on it, and she said that man or woman, she thinks I'd look bad with bangs and she would rather not. Then again, she would also rather me not have long hair.

So that started the whole trans- conversation again, which I was scared would be bad, but it wasn't. We somehow stumbled into a point of, "Well you don't really know what I would look like as a woman," and she agreed with that statement. I apologized for being trans (yes, I know this is stupid and bad, but like I said, it was a bad day/night) and started to cry a little. I told her I wish I had somebody close who I could go shopping with and try it out, just to see. And that's when something really special happened.

She told me she would be happy to go shopping with me, help me buy some clothes and shoes, take me back home and help me put on makeup. I couldn't help but smile at that and tried to push my luck a little and asked if she would go out with me like that, to a movie.

Anyway, long story short, she's taking me out to dinner and a movie! SQUEE!! I'm so happy. :) I know this could be potentially very difficult for her, so I offered to go to a nice place we know of that has intimate dining (less exposure to random people), and asked if she would do the ordering as my voice isn't trained yet (I haven't even begun as I didn't think I would have this chance for another year!).

Awesome!

(I'd wish you luck, but everyone beat me to it and I'm far too asleep to sound as good saying it. )

Nonono, that would be horrible. ._.

I was just thinking about how there are so many side-effects to the medicine given for depression... Sorries!

That's strange, but yay!

My voice sometimes changes too, but I think that's because I have a permanent cough. Accursed throat! It's ruining my voice-fun!

Mine's making me cough, oddly enough. Every time I talk for a couple of minutes it gets all scratchy, possibly because I never really made this voice before. It's cool enough to make up for it.

[Glass Mouse]

Eeeee! That's so adorable! And don't feel bad about the heels, loads of tall women don't bother with them. Like 90% of their usefulness is making you look taller and if you don't need it, you don't need it. (Also, being useful is about 5% of what they do.)

Part of their usefulness is also in forcing you to use your hips a lot while walking (or it'll start hurting), giving you that bouncy, feminine walk.

Heels might be worth it just to be on eye level with guys, but eh... I'm nowhere near attentive enough of my feet for that to end well


Also, Ali, I'm glad she's starting to come around

This would be the main reason I want to try them. :) I am worried about my height now that my wife brought it up though. She's only 4'10". If I wore heels it'd really enhance our size difference and I'd stick out like some weird tree. I want to be attractive, but I don't really want people staring until I'm more confident of passing, y'know?

And thank you, I'm glad of this first step too. I'm just scared it may be the last.

Fabulous. I like that she can express an unbiased opinion, if that makes sense; that regardless of her views on a topic, this is the reason etc. that's a rare skill in my local area...

And you're rather lucky, too, to have honest help with lookin' good. It's really easy to like how clothes look, and ignore if they do or don't work for your particular body type.

Al'izh'dheg: You're lucky to have her. Even if the marriage doesn't last, she still sounds like one hell of a partner. I'm all warm fuzzied.

One request, though. I liked hearing you say how you tried long nails, only to realize that they keep getting in the way. When you go out, try it in heels. Then you can start declaring them to be godforsaken torture devices and swear that you'll never wear them again, for another truly girly moment.

Heels aren't that bad. Well, up to three inch heels aren't that bad.

[Heliomance]

The other thing about heels that's useful for mtfs: They make your feet look smaller.

Yeah, but I'm already 6'3", so I'm a bit on the edge about heels.

Also, I'm single again. He got asked out by a girl he likes today, who he can actually see whenever he wants, unlike me of course, so I suppose I can't blame him. He said he didn't want to hurt either of us, I said that I would be fine, that I could handle it. I was lying, but I didn't want him to feel bad, and I wanted him to do what he wanted, not what I wanted.

So yeah... I'm quitting long-distance relationships.
